## org.apache.tools.ant.taskdefs.optional.net
Class FTP

    java.lang.Object
      org.apache.tools.ant.ProjectComponent
          org.apache.tools.ant.Task
              org.apache.tools.ant.taskdefs.optional.net.FTP

public class FTP
extends Task

Basic FTP client. Performs the following actions:

- send - send files to a remote server. This is the default action.
- get - retrive files from a remote server.
- del - delete files from a remote server.
- list - create a file listing.
- chmod - change unix file permissions.

Note: Some FTP servers - notably the Solaris server - seem to hold data ports open after a "retr" operation, allowing them to timeout instead of shutting them down cleanly. This happens in active or passive mode, and the ports will remain open even after ending the FTP session. FTP "send" operations seem to close ports immediately. This behavior may cause problems on some systems when downloading large sets of files.

Since:
  Ant 1.3

### setAction

    public void setAction(java.lang.String action)
                   throws BuildException

  Deprecated. setAction(String) is deprecated and is replaced with setAction(FTP.Action) to make Ant's Introspection mechanism do the work and also to encapsulate operations on the type in its own class.

    `BuildException`

### setListing

    public void setListing(java.io.File listing)
                    throws BuildException

  Throws:
    `BuildException`

### setSkipFailedTransfers

    public void setSkipFailedTransfers(boolean skipFailedTransfers)

  If true, enables unsuccessful file put, delete and get operations to be skipped with a warning and the remainder of the files still transferred.

    `java.io.IOException`
    `BuildException`

### resolveFile

    protected java.lang.String resolveFile(java.lang.String file)

  Correct a file path to correspond to the remote host requirements. This implementation currently assumes that the remote end can handle Unix-style paths with forward-slash separators.

### createParents

    protected void createParents(com.oroinc.net.ftp.FTPClient ftp,
                                 java.lang.String filename)

                          throws java.io.IOException,
                                 BuildException

  Checks to see if the remote file is current as compared with the local file. Returns true if the remote file is up to date.

  Throws:
    `java.io.IOException`
    `BuildException`

### doSiteCommand

    protected void doSiteCommand(com.oroinc.net.ftp.FTPClient ftp,
                                 java.lang.String TheCMD)
                          throws java.io.IOException,
                                 BuildException

  Sends a site command to the ftp server

  Throws:
    `java.io.IOException`
    `BuildException`

### sendFile

    protected void sendFile(com.oroinc.net.ftp.FTPClient ftp,

                            BuildException

  Sends a single file to the remote host. `filename` may contain a relative path specification. When this is the case, `sendFile` will attempt to create any necessary parent directories before sending the file. The file will then be sent using the entire relative path spec - no attempt is made to change directories. It is anticipated that this may eventually cause problems with some FTP servers, but it simplifies the coding.

  Throws:
    `java.io.IOException`
    `BuildException`

### delFile

    protected void delFile(com.oroinc.net.ftp.FTPClient ftp,
                           java.lang.String filename)
                    throws java.io.IOException,
                           BuildException

                           BuildException

  Retrieve a single file to the remote host. `filename` may contain a relative path specification.

  The file will then be retreived using the entire relative path spec - no attempt is made to change directories. It is anticipated that this may eventually cause problems with some FTP servers, but it simplifies the coding.

  Throws:
    `java.io.IOException`
    `BuildException`

### listFile

    protected void listFile(com.oroinc.net.ftp.FTPClient ftp,
                            java.io.BufferedWriter bw,

                     throws java.io.IOException,
                            BuildException

  List information about a single file from the remote host. `filename` may contain a relative path specification.

  The file listing will then be retrieved using the entire relative path spec - no attempt is made to change directories. It is anticipated that this may eventually cause problems with some FTP servers, but it simplifies the coding.

  Throws:
    `java.io.IOException`
    `BuildException`

                                 BuildException

  Create the specified directory on the remote host.

  Parameters:
    `ftp` - The FTP client connection
    `dir` - The directory to create (format must be correct for host type)
  Throws:
    `java.io.IOException`
    `BuildException`

### execute

    public void execute()
                 throws BuildException
